New Dyno Results!
I put my Vette on a Dyno a few months ago for a couple runs. 262 Max RWHP, and 258 Max Torque. I was pretty disappointed for the money I had spent on mods. My Air fuel ratio was off - 10.8. So I called Ed Wright at Fast chip with the numbers, and he sent me a new chip at no charge. Since getting the new chip, I've added an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and a B&M 2,400 stall, and trans go shift kit.
My new numbers 288 RWHP and 285 RWTQ at 42 P.S.I. I am still smiling a day later. Now I know my numbers may pale in comparison with some of the guys on this forum, but nothing can bring me down right now - except maybe more engine troubles. The guys at Strope Speed Shop in Washington, P.A. are telling me to dump the B&M for a Vigilante and I will see a major difference. So that is next, along with LT headers from Exotic Muscle if they ever show up.
My first run was with the original Fast chip, B&M T.C., shift kit - and 45 PSI
261 RWHP, 270 Torque- pretty much the same as my runs a few months, except now I have Plus 12 ft. lbs of torque- probably due to the B&M T.C.
Second run original chip, B&M T.C., Shift kit and 41 PSI = 271 RWHP and 282 Torque
NOT BAD FOR AN ADJ. Fuel Pressure Regulator. Great Mod! Plus 10 RWHP and + 12 Torque
I got my best results with my reprogrammed chip at 42 PSI. Now my Air Fuel is 12.0
With my new found power, I definitely need some new tires. :yesnod:
